mores Wrote:hey guys and gals,
please excuse the rather weird question.
but what author/book would you recommend, when someone wanted to read something similar to the repairman jack series?
i know, fpw is unique, but there must be other authors and/or books that give a similar reading experience.
i am asking because i am in a waiting state until i get new RJ books!
and i am tired of the same old csi-crap of the patterson, reichs, mcdermid type. what do you read between fpw books ?

thanks for your replies and suggestions.

anyhow, i'll check out those suggested authors, and do some browsing through this forum to find more.
must broaden horizon
thanks again,
